[Pkg-puppet-devel] Bug#594584: puppetmaster - environment column grows endless

[Bastian Blank]

Package: puppetmaster
Version: 0.26.0-2
Severity: grave

puppetmaster fails to properly set the environment name in the storeconfig host
entry. This leads to exponential growth, which is a DoS.

| puppet=> SELECT length(environment) from hosts;
|  length 
| --------
|      14
|      14
|      20
|        
|      20
|      96
|      14
|      28
|      14
|      20
|      28
|      14
|      20
|      20
|      20
|     296
| (16 rows)

The last row contains roughly:
--- "--- \"--- \\\"--- \\\\\\\"--- \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"--- \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"--- \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"--- \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"--- production\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\"\\\"\""
